General CommentThe gods, those for whom life is "sublime" and "sorrowless", rest peacefully while below them mankind struggles to deal with a transient and ultimately futile existence, a life which has the sole destination of the black depths.

Am laughing WITH you, not at you; you're just too dang cute for your own good:-) That's what happens when God (yes, there is one...and only one) gives good looks and amazing brain power to one lucky individual. (You would have thunk He'd at least spread the wealth:(

Song MeaningIt indeed is about the difference between gods and mortals, but people keep forgetting these lines:

"For the part of man
Is to take the sombre path
Stumble in the dark
Stray amidst the dust and ash"

The song is not just about how much better the lifes of gods are, it is also about that we are not gods, and we 're meant to accept it and live life the way it's given to us. Even though that can mean the hard way - it is a part of being human.
